A remarkable degree of enterprise was
displayed by the Union this morning, and
while the new departure which that
institution has adopted is of such nature
that the ARGUS or any other paper can
not nourish the least hope of equaling it,
it demonstrates the exceedingly peculiar
way-enterprising way too-the Eigh>
teenth street concern has of reporting
local events and happenings. 1t pub
fishes this morning an account of a we'd
ding in the Broadway church last night p
gives the names of the contracting
parties ,clereymeD, and mentions even the
guests present-but does not give their
names-and speaks of reception at the
residence of the brides parents after
wards. The ARGus office has been
favored with cards to a wedding at
Broadway church one week from last
night, in which the names of the
contracting parties are the same as those
which the Union publishes this morning.
and we are inclined to believe the cards
are more reliable than the Union as re-
CARDS the date At any rate the ARGUS
prizes its reputation for reliability too
much to publish an occurrence as having
occurred until it has occurred. But the
readers of the Union now know with
what care the news they read is pre-
pared, and how much of an effort is
made to obtain facts as they actually
are. The onion had learned from some
source that wedding was TO occur on
a Wednesday evening, but it did not at
tempt to ascertain the exact date.
The Unions new tactics, its ideas of
euterprise-if such they be called do
not exactly challenge admiration, yet
there is manifested therein disposition
to change. 1t would be nothing unusual
for the Union to be a week behind time.
but its coming out week ahead, passes
the understanding of the oldest jnhabi
tant.

A Curious Coincidence.


Mrs Charles Talbot, of Chester. Pa :,
writes:
The circumstances am about to re-
late presents a remarkable coincidence A
year last fall, accompanied my husband
to an exhibition given by some kickapoo
Indians. which included lecture upon
Kickapoo remedies by an Indian physician
In the course of his remarks he alluded to
the specific virtues of kickapoo Indian oil
as an external application for Group and
the beneficial use of Kickapoo cough cure
as an internal remedy for the same COM
plaint-somewha POLITICALLY terming
the one the handmade of the
other. Struck with this apparent an>
alogy and thin king of my baby at home,
| prevailed upon my husband to buy a
bottle of each remedy. On returning we
found the little one fast asleep in his
nurse'sar We retired to rest as usual,
about midnight | was awoke from a
sound slumber by harsh cough attended
with a peculiar ringing sound. | soon
discovered that baby had an attack of
Group, and from the laborious, suffocat
ing nature of the breathing | knew no
time must be lost. Our newly purchas-
ed medicines were fortunately at hand; q
small dose of the kickapoO cough cure
was given internally and a piece of
flannel wet with diluted Indian Oil, ac-
cording to directions, was laid over the
throat soon followed by second dose of
the couch cure. The effect WAS magical. .
in half an hour the baby WAS easy, ard
after renewed application of both RENE
dies. in an hours time it was nestled in
my bosom, breathing easily and sleeping
peacefully without any recurrence of the
attack | don't think | ever heard
more curious coincidence. What might
have happened without these remedies?'

vicinity has furnished two successful candI
dates for the presidency. To the graves of
Andrew jackson millions of your country
men turn with reverent ethusiasm, and you
are fortunate in numbering among your resi-.
dents the loved ana honored widow of our
eleventh president. You have furnished
from your neighborhOod i think five mem
bers of presidential cabinets, nine United
States senator's, two speakers of the house of
representatives and one justice of the United
States supreme court. With such a history,
and with such examples, the state
of Tennessee and its capital have been
brought into relations with the operation of
the Federal government and may we'll claim
a large share in its glory and benefcent re-
suits. The influence of the sentiment en-
gendered by these relations and traditions
and city to their old love for the Union, after
a sad interruption, and restored them to the
brotherhood in which they had found a
noble and honorable career. In the years to
come am sure nothing but continued and
increasing growth and development await
the people of Tennessee constantly adding
to the splendor and importance of her capi-
tai city.
Upon the conclusion of the address,
the president was reconducted to the
rotunda of the capitol, where he
RECEIVED THE PUBLIC.
Strong military lines were placed
from entrance to exit, between which
the people passed rapidly and with good
order throughout. Thousands of people
passed through, and a few minutes be-
fore IL, when it We s time to depart. the
long line still stretched away apparently
unending. At the Maxwell house thou
sands of ladies were received by Mrs.
Cleveland and each gracefully taken by
the hand. until the time for departure
cut the ceremonies short. Mrs. Cleve-
land and her escort took carriages, and
at Vine street were joined by President
Cleveland and party, and the long pro-
cession escorted them to the train.
Here again several thousand people
packed all the adjacent streets and
wildly cheered the party as they passed.
Promptly at IL o'clock the train pulled
out for Chattanooga amid the shouts of
thousands ard the waving of handker-
chiefs. In numbers, enthusiasm and
good humor, the crowd excelled any
that was ever seen in Nashville before.

Put Off a Moving Train.

Ned Burroughs, the boy who was
thrown off a moving passenger train in
the Union depot yards last Friday night
and had his left leg crushed under the
wheels, died at the City hospital Satur-
day afternoon, but for some unknown
reason his death was not made public
until late hour last night The in
lured limb was amputated. and the phys
icians were required to perform two
operations, which so weakened the boy
that he died shortly after. Burroughs
was sixteen years old, and his parents
lived at Sheridan, Mich: He boarded a
Milwaukee train in the hope of stealing
ride toward home, but was thrown off
violently Ly one of the railroad en-

Lying on the Track.

A strange man was found by train
men about 10 o'clock last night lying OH
the railroad tracks under the East Sey-
enth street bridge. He was uncon-
sciOus, and had cash in his scalp four
inches long. extending straight back
from the center Of the forehead. The
man was picked up and brought to the
union depot, where the patrol
wagon was called and he was
sent to the city hospital. He
recovered consciousness: but would
only say that he had wife and chill
dren living at Northfield. Minnesota.
From letters in his pocket. he is be-
lieved to be NJ. l.. Kain,a snbcontractor
who has been employed in grading and
surfacing for the railway tracks of the
500 road, His skull is not fractured,
and he will probably recover. The po-
lice believe that he either jumped from
the bridge or was struck by the cars.
He was considerably intoxicated at the
time, but had no money.
